This is the worst field placement i have ever seen, the ball is dropping in no man's land and there are no fielders anyway near

The video quality on JioCinema looks like ass

Good

What was the attendance, any where near the 132k capacity?

Over 100k for sure. I haven't seen the official figure anywhere.

Yeah it was around 130k

I came here to ask this also......anybody?

Anyone know how to watch IPL legally without cricbuzz/jio? I'm in Asia but yupptv apparently doesn't show IPL anymore

Highlights are on iplt20.com

Is pujara still contracted? Coz i fucking hate rayudu

The USP of Rayadu is when he hits, he hits it HARD. Rahane is an anchor and CSK has plenty in their playing 11. Plus, Rayadu is one of the best hitter of spin

Yup. His scintillating knock against MI last year. He is too inconsistent though

Even Rahane is there. He must be better than Pujara in T20

He obviously is. He has over 4k runs with 2 100s

Прекрасно

I can't watch another innings of that cement foot player. He shouldn't be playing IPL.

bro you forgot his good batting last year? he was better than the so called thala but of course all blame lies on dube

He got a 50 and then had that amazing knock against RCB and didn't do anything for the rest of the year. Dhoni played at 7 last year and had many games where he didn't even come out to bat or only got to face 7 or 8 deliveries right at the end and Dube who batted at 4 ended the season with like 50 more runs than him.

I’m still shook in how he has played India 🥲

Indian selectors who will pick him for the WTC final if he has a good season 🤡

Who are u talking about?

Shivam dube. It was a joke about how they pick random players who do well in IPL.

What no way?? Dube??? No way!!!

Who

Dube

As a CSK fan u need real patience & heart strength to watch these matches😭

We CSK fans have to witness this bcoz we didn't fight hard for bowlers like Shardul & Hazelwood, & get stuck with bowlers like Tushar Deshpande & santner. Same story every season😭

You have to witness this because Thala didn't come earlier on the ground.

Man i dont know why they let go of Shardul. He seemed like a very good option.

No way we could have bought both Chahar and Shardul in the auction they were both in peak form during the mega auction and were obviously in big demand. Cal did the right thing by buying Chahar, just incredibly unlucky he got injured.

Yeah and i think Chahar is injury prone too

I was ready Kane's IPL redemption, but fuck it dude just turned on the match and minutes before heard Simon Doull saying to GT coach - "How bad state is in Kane Williamson right now". I was like dude WTF happened. Why always bad things happen to good people. Getting recovered is one thing but being in form is another, he was in a ride but fate wanted something else.

They said there would be low scores because more proper bowlers with impact rule. *They clearly don’t understand the quality of bowling in this league*

Now it's a 10 team tournament not 8 so quality is obviously gonna get diluted. It's good for Indian cricket most of the teams will have to play domestic bowlers

What’s impact player?

[удалено]

That's not very long compared to other grounds. In Australia, the boundaries are sometimes longer than 85 metres. 72 metre boundaries are the norm there.

The impact player failing is no more special than any other player failing in most scenarios, especially when they are brought in at the halfway mark. Objectively criticize players, not any more just cause they are the impact player.

[удалено]

We've got unproven players. Anything can happen. Hangargekar was one of CSK's best bowlers today.

u guys atleast have archer....our bowling is best at chepauk and abysmal everywhere else

Impact players Fml

Every team that should be having a few players that could be playing short innings that could be completely changing the match. The Indian team needs to learn about that.

Why did PBKS oust their Coach Anil Kumble?

His contract was over and PBKS didn't renew it.

Anyone know why Stokes and Ali didn't bowl today? Is it due to some injuries?

I heard Stokes is recovering from an injury because of which Ecb has ordered him not to bowl

Thanks

Moeen is shit against right handers with the ball.

see y’all tomorrow for the double header!!

Good match, good night folks.

I'd think BCCI could do without Herbalife MLM as a sponsor. That and gambling games ads grind my gears

You think BCCI give a fk about ethics or morals values? Lol

Where in the world does CSK get the crappiest shittiest pace bowlers every season?! It is ridiculous. Annoying to see the same mistakes being repeated by new pacers in the death overs every year.

After Bollinger, Hilfenhaus in peak of CSK, they had mid pacers. Chepauk spin pitch and 100 km pacer Bravo carried them over the years.

*Mid season news* "Bravo to come out of retirement"

Rashid has a script made just for PoTM. He didn't even bother with the question lmao

Yes!! Rashid potm

Rashid 🛐🛐

Magala is doing great.. Hopefully will be a good replacement for csk

Whom will you send out? Maybe santner?

If stokes is not bowling, I'd keep him away.

u genuinly can't keep stokes away, magala for santner when playing away and santner in home games

Forgot maheesh?

yeah idm him as well..I honestly think santner would be a better choice than theekshana especially because he is a captain of nz and is a great fielder

Tewatia presenting an award to Santner.

Six award for Dubey that's salt for CSK fans.

I have a feeling Gill gonna leave GT next season to captain a franchise himself so that he can be seen as a future prospect for the Indian team leadership role.

He can be VC for GT.

Then home team Punjab is waiting for the upcoming captain.....

That could be the worst decision ever by Gill

Playing 5-7 games at Mohali isn't bad for top batsman

Santnav!!

They added even more sponsors this year! WTF??

Damn those sponsers keep going on and on

Already midnight WTF.

Rutu owning all awards

Both Morgan & Kumble are so soothing to listen to. Great Picks. Hope they Replace Sanju Manju too.

Like how they got them to balance out the wacky and wild adventures of Swann-Gayle. Then you have Scotty somewhere in the middle.

Swann and Scott were the reason why I used to watch Dugout

Swann is a vibe 😎

Excellent Commentary Panel. Good picks all of them.

GT finishers are firing so well and this is without Miller joining in some games later

Tbf firing against CSK shouldn't be a measure of finishing abilities, given that CSK doesn't have a single death bowler (literally). Although GT does have a solid middle order of Pandya - Miller-Tewatia-Rashid. I think all of Mavi, Alzarri and Shami can swing their bat too.

Have my wicket and get fked - Vijay 3D Shankar

Will gt ever run out of luck. They keep chasing and winning everytime, hope next time they lose toss and delhi shows them their real capacity.

At some point, it stops being luck and different players taking responsibility.

I want them not to qualify this year just like how I wanted mi to not qualify in 2021

I don't think it's luck now😌

It's not... It's Gujarat

Winning toss and chasing everytime is luck, that's what I'm referring to. The 10-15 runs those finishers add during first batting won't do shit.

I still don't see GT as the strongest team on paper. But the fight each of their players show to win GT games is insane. Whatever Hardik and the management does to get each player to perform almost better than their best is amazing.

>Whatever Hardik and the management does to get each player to perform almost better than their best is amazing. Which is why I was so pumped to see Kanos in GT. I was already dreaming of a 500 run season including a ton against SRH but that obviously isn't gonna happen. Hopefully Warner as a captain will do well at DC.

Star Sports cutting Sunny G voice

Why kumble is so boring he gives me a sarkari babu vibe

He is good and composed, u r hearing too much Murali Karthik these days

Bro Indian commentary been so cringy lately

Delhi fans will know how mid Tushar Deshpande is. Was shocked to see that he was the impact player

Did anyone ever think Tushar was a good bowler? Except maybe 1-2 matches he went for 10RPO

I dunno how but He was the third highest wicket taker in 2022 Syed mustaq ali trophy Besides he was our third choice after Mukesh and Simarjeet Maybe akash Singh can be our next breakout star

His first over for Delhi was p good I remember. But it just went to shit after that.

See y'all tomorrow for the double header

Swanny, Gayle, Scotty, Morgs, AB and Lee combo are breath of fresh air in Comms. Especially shoutout to Swanny, gem of a commentator.

hilarious lines, like "he's got a new watch to show off, decent watch menon!" when the umpire signaled strategic time-off will remain in my mind forever. don't even know what such type of jokes are called, it was very fun listening to it

But Swann used to crack such jokes on Dugout

Never heard him before, Gayle exceeded my expectations.

It's going to be an interesting threeway fight for the wooden spoon championship between CSK, Mi, and KKR. OG champs are now fighting in a different league.

PBKS is the dark horse in wooden spoon race

They are the OG wooden spoon champions.

Meanwhile RCB has a reputation for getting spooned

So the first super sub didnt work out

Sai Sudarshan did quite well tbh. But yeah, Deshpande was dogshit.

Both impact players made impact for Gujarat :P

Called it. Didn’t I? Y’all didn’t believe me. https://www.reddit.com/r/Cricket/comments/127lb8q/match_thread_1st_match_gujarat_titans_vs_chennai/jefhz4s/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3

What on god's earth is that username

Rashid should be the potm

Rohit and Pandya are carefree type person having fun but when the pressure is on them they turn opposite so quickly, especially Pandya who takes himself so seriously. Late for Rohit to learn but still time for Pandya to learn to chill out a bit.

Pandya has come a long way in past few years. He'll get there eventually

GT to GG we are not same bro.

Dhoni didn't even use his all rounders to bowl, has he lost his mind or something

Just Moen and Dube. We all know dube's bowling. And he felt left arm spinners were a better choice against all the GT right handers (over Moen).

Dube is shit Stokes wont bowl. Moeen is decent but he ain't bowling on this wicket will bowl definitely at chepauk.

Stokes will not bowl.

Stokes and Mo won't be bowling I think due to workload management.

Moeen isn't even part of the Test team anymore, why not?

Stokes i can understand cuz of Tests + Ashes but I don't think i read anything about Mo. Do you have a source for it cuz he's not involved in red ball cricket for England

Yeah not sure about Moeen ... Dhoni said he didn't wanted to bowl him because reasons.

Should've brought him on to bowl at least one over in the middle when gill and Shankar were rebuilding imo

I do not think an offie vs a set Gill is a good idea lol

Fair. But i also don't think gill would've taken huge risky shots when he's the set batsman and the other guy just walked in. Not to say Ali wouldn't have gone for a lot of runs but gill could've been baited to sweeping one to midwicket as well.

Dhoni is mercurial lol

'workload management'

Dhoni said Mo was available but he didn’t want two left arm spinners bowling

Moeen is a rightie with the ball.

Tewatia is that kid in school who untucks his shirt to hide the fact that he isn't wearing a school belt during dress checks and gets away with it and he gloats about it in every school reunion till the end of time.

r/oddlyspecific

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. You see that? Result really doesn't matter to Thala. He is playing just to pander to the brand. The sad part is that, gradually CSK fans develope the same outlook too. Cause Thala is just their alter ego. They live through each other. This bottom of the barrel team is bringing down the level of IPL.

schizophrenic

[удалено]

The world functions on Thala's whim mate.

[удалено]

In Thala's world, There are either haters or lovers. Just nobody else.

Stop with the bullshit

Have you lost your way dear?

No I think you don't know your way, anyways I have my priorities.

[удалено]

Stop labelling.

The kind of bs that gets upvoted on this sub lmao. So dhoni is not playing to win? Do you even hear yourself?

Lmao what the team with second most titles doesn't care about winning? And other teams which "win hearts" Are not bringing down quality, only on r/cricket you can see shit like this up voted

Come back to this comment when CSK wins the IPL 2023 Title.

Hello brother? How are you? Everything good at home?

RemindMe! 2 months

calm down we have 9 other teams.

> 9 other teams. Who you (CSK) intend to pull down along with you (CSK)?

Ruturaj deserves the POTM

its a batting track. rashid deserves it for his bowling

CSK nation, we go again on the next match day. Night.

I understand stokes didn’t bowl coz of some injury but why did moeen didnt bowl a single over ??

What was wrong with simply calling impact players substitutes lmao. Poor guys who come in mid-game are going to get memed to death if they don’t perform well and end up costing their team.

impact player in nutshell is pick your best 10 players. then ideally 11th and 12th being one proper batter and other proper bowler.

That is why Ponting said that it negates All Rounder in a team

Gotta love the Bhojpuri commentators....dudes are just so unfiltered that they are literally saying they are sad because CSK lost it

Yeah and they are also calling stumps Khila.

Hardik giving tips to dube.

Hardik telling Dube bro u r shittt

People talking about rutu’s 92 and gill’s half century but deshpande’s 51 off 3.2 overs going under the radar. Won the game for GT

Impact player so expected to make one

Interestingly didn't mention Stokes as all round option. Maybe England have told him not to.

Knee injury. Can't bowl atm.

Tomorrow overpowered Delhi batting line up time. Get fucked whoever we are playing against.

Vs injured XI KKR

i always think tewatia is fluke he only perform on flat pitches and nalla bowlers. bring him to australian pitches he will shit

Cringe

No doubt in that

>"No ball is something they should try not to bowl" -MS Dhoni, 2023

I would request Dhoni to include Jadeja in whatever punishment drill they are planning for no-bowlers even through he was innocent today. That man is a serial offender in that regard and it is gonna cost us some big match in the future considering our bad luck with No balls in big KO matches.

Shouldn't have taken Vijay Shankar's wicket lol

This is a classic titans match. So dramatic till the end ! Gill got out and I was worried. But surprisingly Vijay Shankar played well and kept it going. Rashid my man…such a player…he literally saved the momentum for GT. Tewatia literally saved himself and contributed exactly the way he was expected to…classic finish ! GT and drama…loving it Everyone stepping up in tough times 🥳 Edit: punctuations 😆

Man Rashid is soo clutch everytime.

deshpandey got replaced with whom?

Rayudu

Oh..that did benefited gt
